REYES CUP SET FOR ELECTRIFYING RETURN TO MANILA, OCTOBER 16–19

PhilBoxing.com





The countdown begins for Team Asia’s first-ever title defence

The World Nineball Tour, in partnership with Puyat Sports, is thrilled to announce the return of the Reyes Cup — set to light up Ninoy Aquino Stadium in Manila once again from October 16–19, 2025. Broadcast live on One Sports and WNT TV, the four-day team clash promises even greater firepower, intensity, and drama, as Team Asia prepares to defend their crown on home soil.

The full list of broadcast partners will be announced soon.

Following its explosive debut in 2024, where Team Asia clinched a commanding 11–6 victory in front of a raucous home crowd, the Reyes Cup is back for its second edition — and with it, the return of the electric team format that has captured the hearts of fans across the world.

Inspired by the legendary Efren "Bata" Reyes, the Reyes Cup honours the Philippines’ deep-rooted passion for cue sports while showcasing the finest talent from across Asia in a high-energy team environment. Among those chasing Reyes Cup glory, 2024 MVP Aloysius Yapp currently tops the Race to the Reyes Cup for Team Asia — and will be looking to return as a key force this October.

The tournament follows the same thrilling four-day format as the prestigious Mosconi Cup, and in just one year has established itself as a major highlight on the global pool calendar drawing huge crowds in Manila and millions of viewers worldwide. With rivalries reignited and pride on the line, the Ninoy Aquino Stadium is expected to be packed to the rafters once again.

Efren Reyes, said: "Last year was very special — to see Team Asia win the first Reyes Cup in front of our home crowd was unforgettable. The atmosphere was amazing, and I’m so happy the tournament is coming back to Manila! It was an honour to serve as captain last year, and I’ll be cheering the team on as they go for back-to-back titles."

Mr Aristeo “Putch” Puyat, commented: "Bringing the Reyes Cup back to Ninoy Aquino Stadium means so much — it’s an iconic venue for sport in the Philippines, and the perfect stage to celebrate our love for pool. Team Asia’s win last year was just the beginning, and I’m proud to welcome the world back to Manila for another incredible event."

Emily Frazer, CEO of Matchroom Multi Sport, stated: "The first Reyes Cup exceeded every expectation — the energy, the passion, the crowd, everything came together to create something truly special. Bringing the Reyes Cup back to Manila in 2025 — once again with our incredible partners Puyat Sports — was a no-brainer. With Team Asia defending their title and rivalries heating up, this year promises to be even bigger and better. Ninoy Aquino Stadium is the perfect venue for an atmosphere like no other — and with tickets on sale soon, fans won’t want to miss their chance to be part of it."

With the world’s best set to collide once again in Manila, fans won’t want to miss a moment. Full broadcast details, team announcements, and ticket information will be announced soon.
